Student:faculty
17:1

The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. At 17:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. This is a for-profit two-year institution. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. At 400 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.

IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 400 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates

Average net price is $4,611 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. Grant aid is limited — 37% of students receive any. Federal borrowing is uncommon here at 13% of students.

Entering first-year students

A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.
